I have often dreamed of a far-off place Where a hero's welcome would be waiting for me Where the crowds will cheer when they see my face And a voice keeps saying, " This is where I'm meant to be I'll be there someday, I can go the distance I will find my way, if I can be strong I know every mile will be worth my while When I go the distance I'll be right where I belong Like a shooting star, I will go the distance I will search the world, I will face its harms I don't care how far, I can go the distance 'Til I find my hero's welcome waiting in your arms
